THE GRAND ARMY.
Facts and Figures of it's Meetings
and Membership.

The annual encampment of the Grand
Army of the Republic, at ST. Louis, which
has attracted more attention than any pre-
ceding one for many years, is the twenty
first held since the foundation of the associa-
ton. It's first post, according to a Washing
ton dispatch to the New York Sun,
was organized in Decatur Ill, April
6, 1866, and the second quickly fol
lowed at Springfield, in the same State.
Major B. f. Stephenson of Springfield,
who had been surgeon of the Fourteenth
Illinois Volunteers, originated the organiZa
ton, and muStured in the Decatur Post, with
General l. G.. Pugh as Post Commander, and
Captain Kanan as Adjutant. He also, few
months later gave charter to the first East
ern post, Nc. ]. of Philadelphia. General John
w. Palmer was the first Department Com
mander.
The first national encampment was held at
INDIANAPOLIS in November 1866 and General
S. A Hurlbut was there chosen the first Com
mander-in-C Chief. The rules, regulations, and
ritual have been materially modified during
the lapse of more than twenty years since that
first meeting. The second national enCamp
ment was held at Philadelphia in January,
1868, and the Grand Army then took on a
new and far more important form, with pro
visions for permanent establishment. Cen
eral John A. Logan was elected Commander
in-Chief and q few months later signaliZed
the beginning of his career as head of the
organization by issuing his famous order
directing the observance of May 3Oth as
Memorial Day. The third national encamp
ment was held at Cincinnati, where General
Logan was reelected Commander in-C Chief,
and General Lucius Fairchild and General
j. r. Hawley respectively Senior and
Junior Vice Commander-in-C Chief. The fourth
annual encampment was at Washington, the
fifth at Boston, the sixth at Cleveland, the
seventh at New Haven, the eighth at Harris
burg the ninth at Chicago, the tenth at Phila-
delphia, the eleventh at Providence, the
twelfth at Springfield, Mass; the thirteenth
at Albany, the fourteenth at Dayton. the
fifteenth at indianapolis, the sixteenth at
Baltimore; the seventeenth at Denver, the
eighteenth at Minneapolis, the nineteenth at
Portland and the twentieth, last years, at
San Francisco.
At the San Francisco encampment, held in
August, 1886, there were shown to be con-
nected with the organization s. 765 posts and
$780, 97 members at the date of the last pre-
vious official reports. During the year the
posts had expended an aggregate of S2G5, 673
out of their charity and relief fund, not
reckoning the expenditures of $50 posts whose
reports had not been received, and there was
balance in the fund of 1901. O12

The schooner. In that boat was NichO as

HOME RULERS KILLED.
The Police Fire Upon q Large
Crowd in Ireland.

Mitchel,stown, Ireland, where the case of
the British Government ag inst Mr. William
O'Brien, the Irish editor and Home Rule
eader under the Coercion act, was to have
been heard ON Friday, was crowded all day
with civilians, police and soldiers. Mr..
O'Brien did not appear in court to answer
the summons. The service of the summons
was proved, and the Judge granted a war
rant for Mr.. OBrien's arrest.
An open air Indignation meeting was sub
sequentIy held. Mr. Henry Labouchere, the
London editor, and others made speeches de-
nouncing the British government for its
course il regard to Ireland.
The meeting in Market square was attended
by 1000 persons. MesSrs. Dillon, Drummer,
Labouchere, John Ellis, Gill, Condor
and O'Shea were present. A government re-
porter with an escort of police, tried to push
to the front. The crowd resisted them with
sticks and stones. The police then made a
charge against the crowd and were repulsed
by men on horseback
Mr. Condor tried to pacify the crowd. Mr..
Dillon advised them to treat the police with
silent contempt, because home rule was
nearly Won and then the Irish forces
would be under the control of the people
instead of, as now, in the hands of their
enemies The row was renewed, however,
and reinforcements of police, who had been
driven up from the barracks, fired into the
crowd Two men were killed and several
others were wounded. One of the wounded
has since died. The police next charged and
dispersed the crowd.
Fifty-four constables were treated for
slight injuries.
